I'll take a look into that tomorow!! its 11:30pm here :(!

admin.css - Line 6846.

padding: 20px 10px; which firefox obeys and pads in from the edges meaning the actual "viewport" is none-existent.

If you reduce the padding down to 2px the text will come back but the vertical height on your inputs will reduce (I leave that to you) :).

Thank you :) I will download and install a copy of firefox see if I can fix this up!

Just in case (since you don't have FF installed you might not be a user) grab Firebug at the same time :).

Makes life much easier.

Also check out nexmo I used them on a project last year (UK based) and they where excellent, also looking quickly 6.5c per text ;).

Thanks a lot, I used to be a Firefox user when I was younger maybe 7 years ago. It started to get very 'windows vista ish' and my really really poor pc couldn't handle it so maybe 4 - 5 years ago I switched to chrome... unfortunately that seems to be heading down the same path.

Im not sure what modern firefox so lets see :D

I use them interchangeably as some of the FireFox tools are better than Chrome's and vice versa (it's also handy for impromptu functional testing to switch around as I catch stuff before proper testing does).

Regrettably that was my poor decision to launch without checking it in Firefox, nevertheless bug fixed now :) learn from your mistakes haha

To not test a website on Firefox before launch isn't a bit extreme? (text input invisible is pretty bad)

it was a two day project some things I didn't have time to really 'clean up' that's not to say it ends with two days of work :) I will be clearing up many of the small issues and growing the site's features much more over the next few weeks. Maybe even making the switch to digital ocean and twillio

hmmm, front page of hacker news (your target audience). May want to fix it now! :)

Its a good opportunity. Site looks good otherwise
